We need leaders who are honest.

So badly.

[Sofia B. Kinzinger @sofiakinzinger]

Let me explain….

He takes the picture because the President is going to ask him how the coverage was, and he’ll be able to show him the screen with all four networks carrying his speech.

It’s not about the event or its significance. It’s about him. It’s about whether he got the attention he wanted…the kind that feeds his ego.

And notice how it doesn’t even cross his Comms Director’s mind to share a photo of the event itself and push the actual message. Instead, he’s proudly sharing with the world that the networks carried the President’s speech. 🤦🏻‍♀️

That tells you everything about the priorities: not the substance, not the significance, not the responsibility of governing…but the coverage. Clearly a fundamental misunderstanding of what governing is supposed to be about.

[Amanda Carpenter @amandacarpenter]

This is great but it is obscene Congress continues to do nothing while Trump proceeds to build things that were never authorized, with money that doesn’t belong to him, on property he doesn’t own.

What is the point of Congress if it can’t control the money it appropriates and isn’t interested in checking executive power?

[Rev. Benjamin Cremer @Brcremer]

Christian nationalism defends the powerful.

Christianity defends the powerless.

May we understand the difference.

[Jennifer Erin Valent 🇺🇸🇺🇦 @JenniferEValent]

I can’t believe we’re at a point where some people would think this a measure of a godly church, but that’s where we are. The lack of discernment is epidemic, and far too many people conflate political affiliation and culture wars with the Gospel. What a mess…

[Jennifer Erin Valent 🇺🇸🇺🇦 @JenniferEValent]

It will never stop being unfathomable to me that our country inflicted this wretched man upon the world.

[Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63]

Mike Johnson is the best example of the complete transformation of the GOP from the party of "law and justice" into a sheepish flock of Trump sycophants.

[Brian Fagan @bdfagan]

Remarkable statistic:

Prior to Western Michigan, college football teams were 110,352 - 0 when leading after the end of regulation, dating back to 1869.

[Jennifer Erin Valent 🇺🇸🇺🇦 @JenniferEValent]

Fellow Christians, if you still think the current GOP is pro-life, you’re not paying attention. This GOP cozies up to murderous dictators, demonizes life-saving vaccines, rips away aid, covers up for child abusers, and puts kids in concentration camps. They are anti-life.

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

The U.S. House will be in session only 4 full days from July 24th to November 8th.

That’s 100 paid days off versus 4 full workings days plus 4 travel (half) days.

Meanwhile TRUMP says YOU have too many holidays.

[Bill Kristol @BillKristol]

“By embracing Trump, Republicans did not merely tolerate the demeaning of women or the blasé dismissal of allegations of sexual assault. A decade defending him corrupted the party itself. What began as a political bargain became a morally rotten culture.”

Trump carries no moral or intellectual weight.

Morally and intellectually, he is the lightest of light weights.

Americans of the past would have a hard time believing that their posterity could ever elect such a light weight President.

[Jim Acosta @Acosta]

Yes one of the WH goals is to troll and trigger people. But it must be said that something else has occurred. They have created a social media shop that sanitizes and normalizes white supremacy and cruelty towards immigrants.

[Jim Acosta @Acosta]

These are not vanity projects. That’s being too nice. These are insanity projects. It’s insane that he’s building these gaudy monstrosities and it’s insane that this country’s GOP leaders don’t have the spine to stop him from defacing our nation’s capital. Stop the insanity!

[VoteVets @votevets]

Trump is breaking ground on his 250-foot vanity arch before he even has final approval, all while a veterans’ lawsuit to stop it is still pending in court.

Construction 20 hours a day, for years, at the gates of Arlington where we have buried our nation’s heroes.

Absolutely disgraceful.

[Jennifer Erin Valent 🇺🇸🇺🇦 @JenniferEValent]

Men and women across the ages have fought and died for this nation and continue to do so today. And our society repaid them with… this. Shallow fools, disordered minds, cruel agitators hell bent on destroying everything good. It is a travesty impossible to aptly describe.

[John Brennan @jmbprime]

Who could have ever imagined that the United States government would see Canada as their enemy and Russia as their ally. The United States has lost its moral compass.

[Michael McFaul @McFaul]

This is called imperialism. We are profiting from the use of force in another country.

American are not imperialists. We fought against empire to obtain our independence.

The US should support a democratic transition in Venezuela first, and oil deals with the democratically-elected representatives of the Venezuelan people second.

[Mike Nellis @MikeNellis]

NEWS: Status is reporting Fox fired Maria Bartiromo after she leaked internal texts to the White House showing the network had told staff to stop amplifying Trump's latest election conspiracy theories. Trump has so thoroughly captured the right-wing media ecosystem that its biggest stars now see themselves as his informants first and journalists never.

[Joe Walsh @WalshFreedom]

Of course. Everything with him is a grift. Everything with him is about putting money in HIS pockets. He’s the biggest conman in American history.👇
